Amazon.com Review

I know some Big Words.
I'll teach them to you.
Although you are small,
you can use Big Words too.

Big Words aren't scary.
They're big fun to learn.
I was taught once
and now it's your turn.

The eighth hilarious picture book by the #1 New York Times bestselling team of Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell helps little people communicate in a big person's world. With grown-up words like cooperate, respect, patience and considerate, a big, boisterous and zany family celebrates the power of language and discovers that words—big or little—are the bridge that connects us all.

About the Author

Jamie Lee Curtis loves big words but doesn't know how to spell many of them. She adores her family life, which includes the amazing Annie, the miraculous Tom and the hilarious and loving Christopher. She advocates for children around the world and appreciates her friends, family and colleagues. She lives in stunning and sunny southern California with her rotund dog, Frances.

2 out of 5 stars A Big Words Poem   July 6, 2010
Brian Lampe (San Diego, CA)
In order to ILLUSTRATE my point about this book.
I've decided to write in a SIMILAR manner. Look:
My daughter and I read a lot TOGETHER.
Perhaps this one RUSHED by the author to get her
quota of titles by the PUBULISHER required,
and so the writing is backwards and UNINSPIRED.
The art is not bad and the ILLUSTRATOR I commend,
but my big word for this book is not RECOMMEND.



4 out of 5 stars Inspiration for little kids   May 19, 2010
Emily Graham (Las Vegas)
I love this book! Not quite as much as I thought I would when I bought it but still acceptable. I found the illustrations to be a bit chaotic and distracting from the point of the book: teaching little kids better vocabulary. Several of the words I had a hard time even reading. However, the words that are highlighted are excellent for children to learn and use. My 2 year old is going to read this book a lot!


5 out of 5 stars LOVE IT!!!   May 10, 2010

My four yr. old loves this book and has had me read it almost every night. The terms are explained well and are easy for her to understand.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   April 18, 2010
Katherine M. Hoffman
This is an awesome book... my 3year old now uses a couple of the words he learned in the book and always is asking to read his word school book (Big Words).


5 out of 5 stars Big Words for Little People is a must for every family with kids!   April 15, 2010
V. L. Maples (Tupelo, Mississippi United States)
Adults and kids alike will delight in the melodic, wonderful lessons teaching kids to use their words and understand how to fit in the big people's world. We have shared this all around and gotten a copy for our library; it is that good!

Okay, so there are advantages to going out to the local mall and doing some window shopping or browsing in your favorite bookstore, but when time is short, go the online route. Play at an online casino and save yourself the hassle of time-consuming travel.
